Description

Description This challenge sets out ambitious but achievable targets for improvement of rail sector energy efficiency, reductions in green house gas (GHG) emissions and a more sustainable balance between transport modes.
Objectives To reduce specific final energy consumption from train operations by: 50% reduction by 2030 and 60% reduction by 2050 (relative to a 1990 baseline);

To reduce specific average CO2 emissions from train operations by: 50% reduction by 2030 and 75% reduction by 2050 (relative to a 1990 baseline);

Rail share of passenger transport (passenger/km) to achieve a: 50% increase by 2030 and 100% increase, a doubling by 2050 (relative to a 2010 baseline);

Rail share of freight land transport (tonne/km) to be: equal with road by 2030 and 50% greater than road by 2050.

Activities UIC is seeking partnerships to achieve these targets. These include;

A) partnerships with the private sector to support innovation and greater energy efficiency B) partnerships with national governments & International Institutions to support modal shift

UIC will collect and regularly publish the “Register of modal shift projects 2015-2050”, linked to the Climate Summit Initiative, with updated information related to expected GHG reduction, traffic figures, financial and occupational data of all activities.
